After working at several different schools and camps, we decided to
combine the best features of the programs we experienced and establish
a camp in the Western North Carolina region.
We believe that all
children learn differently, but that dyslexics are often the most
misunderstood because of the gap between intelligence and ability to
perform in school. Despite their best
efforts they are often labeled as careless and lazy.
We plan to meet
the needs of normal, intelligent children who are failing to meet
their academic potential due to specific difficulties in reading,
writing, and spelling. We will also provide camp activities that will
be challenging and enjoyable. |

Mission Statement
Camp Spring Creek is designed to empower dyslexic students to overcome
their academic struggles while building their sense of self.
We will
accomplish this by providing students with a multi-sensory systematic
and sequential tutorial program that fits the individual needs of each
student.
The students are immersed into a structured and supportive
environment that encourages responsibility and perseverance. In
addition we offer multi-sensory language training to educators and
other interested members of the community.
